Spousal unit is going so I'm planning to go as well. Wondering who else might attend ;D Hopefully there will be plenty of water this year.

If you guys post time and date, or at least THE NAME OF THE RIDE, people might be more able to learn about whatever it is you're referencing.

Gracias.

- I would rather go with shellbear and tube the river, but I will be with the others on Saturday at Waxahachie HS at 0700 waiting to start the ride. Maybe it will not be as hot as this weekend, but this is TEXAS after all, and this is the way it is here in late June.

I might be free to do this (although the tubing sounds MUCH more appealing). Who has ridden this before? What are the routes like?

I rode it the last 2 years. 98% country roads, nice, frendly rest stops, and HOT. I never saw a SAG last year, but that only means that "I never saw one", not that there was none. Rolling hills, but nothing like Munster. A lot of farm/ranch land country roads.

The only headache was getting out of WHS and onto 287 service road as there are many businesses along the first mile or so.
